Cursed Dream

Sorry for the late post. Enjoy!
***************

I couldn't imagine I'd be here.
Burying her.

But the man was coming.
This was her only protection;
Their only protection.

In this forbidden land
Where seeds planted refuse to grow
Where time has stopped and sifted underneath
Thousands of years of sand,

I am burying her, breath and tired eyes,
In the hope that the man will pass by,
And the youthful condemned

Will be spared.
